The most obvious standout, besides a few games we already knew about like R-Type, is the appearance of Hideo Kojima's early cyberpunk adventure Snatcher. While it hit the PC Engine in 1992, it wasn't brought to the US for the Sega CD until 1995 and remains rare to this day. It's nice to see it in the box, though a missed opportunity to localize it and make this throwback console truly stand out.

No price has been set yet for the TurboGrafx-16 Mini. It will have a quick save and some scanline options, much like other retro console boxes, as well as a separate multi-tap accessory which will let up to five controllers hook up and play. There isn't too much else to say, other than, please bring us a localized Snatcher.
